Description

The Draft PathLinkArray tool places copies of a selected shape along a selected path, which can be a Draft Wire, a Draft BSpline, and similar edges. It works the same as PathArray but creates internal App Link objects instead of simple copies.

All options are described in the PathArray page.

Properties

Link

  • DataScale (Float): the scale factor of the entire array.
  • DataScale List (VectorList): a list of N-vectors determining the individual scaling factor of each of the N-elements in the array, where N is DataCount.
  • DataLink Transform (Bool): if it is false it can override the linked object's placement.

Alignment

Objects

  • DataExpand Array (Bool): if it is true, the individual App Link objects will be available to select in the tree view.
  • See PathArray for the rest of the options.
